Hi there!
We can use Newton's Second Law:

ΣF = Net force (N)
m = mass (kg)
a = acceleration (m/s²)
We can rearrange the equation to solve for the acceleration.

Answer:
The current can't 'split down the parallel branch, because the diode is reverse biased so is blocking the flow of current. So basically it's acting as an open circuit. Also when the current flows it wouldn't reduce the currents amount flow through the resistor.
